At SOKO, we've always believed great results come from great care, unhurried, personal, and never one-size-fits-all. As more patients from across Johnson County and the Kansas City metro have found their way to our Leawood med spa, we knew it was time to grow. Our newly expanded space was designed around one goal: giving you more access to the best injectors in Kansas City, skin treatments, and wellness care you love, all under one roof.

How SOKO began, and how it grew

SOKO almost wasn't a med spa at all. When Sophia and her husband, Joseph, first purchased their roughly 1,000-square-foot space in Leawood, the plan was to turn it into salon suites. Then, after an unexpected turn of events at Sophia's previous practice, they decided to take a leap of faith and build something of their own. SOKO Aesthetics & Wellness was born.

The growth was real from day one. Patients from across Leawood, Overland Park, and Kansas City found their way to SOKO, and before long the space that once felt like plenty started to feel small. For a while, Sophia and Joseph felt a little stuck, with more patients than rooms and nowhere to grow.

That changed when they got to know their next-door neighbor, Roger Campbell. Roger had spent 30 years helping people build their dreams through construction loans, but Sophia and Joseph didn't come to him for a loan. They came hoping to buy his space. Roger had owned the building next door for three decades and had recently donated it to charity. True to form, he helped facilitate Sophia and Joseph's purchase of the space from the charity, and the additional funds were reinvested into Young Life, a ministry close to his heart.

That act of generosity gave SOKO the room it needed to grow, and it's the space that became our newest expansion.

Welcome to Injectors Row

The heart of our expansion is Injectors Row: three new, dedicated injection treatment rooms side by side, built so our nurse injectors can work together every day.

Injectors Row is home to our award-winning injector team:

  • Sophia Garozzo Koury, RN-BSN, SOKO's founder and lead injector, named Best Nurse Injector in Kansas City by readers of The Pitch.

  • Ashley Williams, RN, BSN, two-time Kansas City Magazine Best Botox Injector and a perennial top-five injector in Kansas City.

  • Payton Guile, RN, trained under Sophia and a regular at advanced injector trainings across the country.

Why does working side by side matter? Because the best results come from collaboration. On Injectors Row, our injectors share techniques, consult on complex treatment plans, and hold each other to the same high standard of natural-looking results. Whether you're coming in for your first Botox appointment or a full-face rejuvenation plan, you benefit from the combined expertise of the entire team, not just one provider.

More room for you

Our expansion also added five new seats to our waiting area, so you can settle in comfortably before your appointment. With three more treatment rooms and a larger lounge, we can now welcome even more patients, which means more appointment availability, shorter waits to get on the schedule, and easier booking with your favorite provider.

The result is truly the full package: expert injectables, advanced skin health, and medical wellness, all in one beautiful Leawood location, just minutes from Overland Park and Kansas City.
